Todman beat Tulloch by 6 lengths in the Champagne Stakes when they were both two year olds :shock:

That was after he'd won the slipper by 8 lengths

Vain won the Craven A plate as a 3yr old by 12 lengths.

He also smashed Daryls joy by 5 in the Caulfield Guineas who then on to win a cox plate in a breeze :shock: Him and Todman were arguably the best two sprinters before the might mare same along.

My dear old dad would of agreed with you, we lost him a few years back. He did see her smash Hay list in they Lightning and did admit it would be much closer then he thought lol.

He reckons he would of led and broke her heart, he reckons he would of been a couple more ahead of her then the likes of Hay List was.

Yep, Cougar the 2nd was as popular over there as Takeover Target was here..

Ran in an era of champions too..Secretariat beat him for Horse of the Year in 1973..

Here is some footage of him..

Spartacus was a beast of a sprinter..

Dud in the barn though..

Moss Rocket unlucky not to win a Gp1..

Cliffy Bashford's Cangronde was another favourite..

And Blue Boss trained by a young David Hall..
